Slaying suspect once found sanctuary in S.F.

The man charged with killing a father and two sons on a San Francisco street last month was one of the youths who benefited from the city’s long-standing practice of shielding illegal immigrant juveniles who committed felonies from possible deportation, The Chronicle has learned.

Edwin Ramos, now 21, is being held on three counts of murder in the June 22 deaths of Tony Bologna, 48, and his sons Michael, 20, and Matthew, 16. They were shot near their home in the Excelsior district when Tony Bologna, driving home from a family picnic, briefly blocked the gunman’s car from completing a left turn down a narrow street, police say.

Ramos, a native of El Salvador whom prosecutors say is a member of a violent street gang, was found guilty of two felonies as a juvenile – a gang-related assault on a Muni passenger and the attempted robbery of a pregnant woman – according to authorities familiar with his background.

“A homeless man was accused yesterday of killing Martin Barreto, a former press aide in the Giuliani administration, who the police said met the man on the street and invited him to his Greenwich Village apartment. The man, Edwin Ramos, 26, was arrested on Tuesday after investigators went to a Manhattan employment agency where they knew he had registered.”

Finally, I find this on a news website. http://wfmz.com/view/?id=291917 Another Edwin Ramos was arrested in Allentown Pennsylvania July 2nd for threating to kill another man and then assaulting a police officer:

“An Allentown man is facing charges after police say he assaulted an officer. Edwin Ramos was arrested Tuesday night for threatening to kill another man. After his arrest, he was taken to a holding cell at Allentown Police headquarters. That’s where police say he kicked an officer. Ramos is facing assault and other charges.”

So the moral of the story is—-> stay away from people named Edwin Ramos
